Tough to tell, it somewhat depends on the concave shape of the spoke too....
I know the celebrations are fairly flat though. I'd just unbolt one caliper and mock things up or... if you have the rotors you can also put the caliper on w/the pads and set the wheel on the rotor. I did the same while testing my fitment (I need 8mm spacers).

I'm running OEM size zimmermans from ECS....
Have been for 3 or 4 years. NOt worn a lip of any kind. Absorb and dissapate heat well.
No complaints in OEM replacement versions.
Used OEM brembo's of the GTI VR6, but was an autocross and track ***** as well as a daily driver.
Not scared of the z's, but will go to Brembos when I do the brake upgrade....

Don't forget you need to swap the bleed nipples and cross over tube on those calipers
The 928GTS calipers are meant to mount on the back side of the rotor, but our brakes mount on the front. They will be upside down if you don't swap them.
The arrow cast in the caliper shows the direction of rotation of the rotor.

AreS4 calipers and brackets + 256x22mm rotors + stock A4 pads the right combo? Do I need spacers...?
